Anyone got any idea if any shops stock Ting (the Jamaican grapefruit drink) these days - tried every Tesco/Asda/Sainsburys etc within at 40 mile radius (Cardiff) and no joy whatsoever? Online not much joy either and don't really want to ebay it.

Afro-Caribbean food stores might have it. (Or not.)

A friend went into one in Kilburn, asking "Have you got any Ting?"

Cue the response: "Whaddya mean, we got evryting!" hehe

Tesco superstore in Accrington had it last time I looked. I thought it was odd as I have never encountered any West Indians in the area yet there it was along with a very impressive selection of Caribbean brands/items.

Anyway, Tesco online has it in tins and plastic bottles.

14 minutes for a 'ting' joke, I'm impressed MC! smile

I can only assume Tesco online must have regional variations, as it doesn't show up for me when I'm logged in? Bizarrely enough Asda also does this - I can add it to the basket, but once I enter my postcode it disappears completely from their web store. Never mind, I'll just stick to Asahi instead!

Our Tesco used to stock it. But strangely it was in the health/whole foods aisle. Not had a look for it for it recently.

That actually happened!
